"[Alien Romulus] joins the prequel series"

[Some Old Dude]

As long as it's not David getting the Shaw/Hix n n00t treatment that's fine.

[DaveT937]

PO podcast reporting it will connect to prequels and the main saga.

Interesting...

[Corporal Hicks]

Yup. He said we'd still get the experience of a 3rd prequel just not the way Ridley intended.

I think I missed these comments. Where they when he announced his involvement?

[Nukiemorph]

All I'm finding is on this post:

Someone comments:
"I just want Ridley to finish this...
Even though Covenant went to a different place, considering he wanted to make 4 prequels, it can easily and in a very awesome way, close all the gaps and unify everything from Prometheus and Alien. Covenant was AWESOME by the way. But a lot of you aren't ready for that discussion..."

and Dane responds:
"haha cheers man! They're could be some kind of closure in the works. Lets see what happens🤘"

Which could be a cheeky hint or he could honestly not know if any kind of prequel conclusion is cooking.

"My feeling is that we'll kinda get that experience, but not the way Ridley intended... I will have to speak on this a little further down the line though... 🤐"

[TheBATMAN]

What about this rumour of a Scott TV series? Could this not be what he is alluding too?

I know GFR are unreliable but you never know.

TV series would certainly not be the way Scott intended.

[Corporal Hicks]

Thanks @Necronomicon II!

Who knows with GFR @TheBATMAN and this second series. My default is to just ignore anything that comes via that site unless it's seen elsewhere with credibility.

[Huntsman]

What they might go for here is an attempt to tie-up Covenant's loose ends while also making the movie stand-alone.

So anyone who hasn't seen the other two prequels can still watch this as the prequel links will be ancillary, but fans of the prequels will also get some closure.

This is what I'd like to see.

We already have a good Predator movie with Prey, I'm hoping it will happen with Romulus too.

[ralfy]

Similar to what's happening to other franchises.

[reecebomb]

Ugh, the last thing the Alien franchise need is another movie bringing Prometheus/Covenant and Alien closer. Outside of some Alien fandom, Covenant is mostly regarded as a joke. Got a really bad feeling about this.

[Nightmare Asylum]

Covenant is cool, though.

[reecebomb]

As a comedy it kind of works.

Conversely, outside the fandom and clickbait youtubers, people quite like Prometheus.

Of course there is no certainty but I also think that Bloomkamp would have screwed it up.
Many people were upset about the film being canceled at the time, but I heard it with great relief.
if only because he would have completely ignored a3 and a4.
I'm one of the few who can handle the current directions.
Almost every ending of an alien film was completely overturned by the beginning of the successor and almost never took the direction expected by the audience.
But not a single part has been really ignored so far
(except the AVP slip-up, which was the right decision)
